RL regionals > AFL ratings in perth and adelaide combined!

heck RL regionals > AFL ratings for AFL everywhere bar victoria

Point's been proved, I changed the title



The Ratings are pretty good, but the attendances are the part that's looking even better, if we can keep this up during the rep season, we should end up with another record year for attendances.

origin period is critical, where we get the dud crowds

the increase in members should see a crowd increase though

So lets compare the NRL to AFL

AFL - 6 rounds completed

Total attendances 1.9m average attendance 40,044 an increase of approx 10% on the average for the whole of 2009.

Collingwood average 64,579
Carlton average 61,694
Essenden average 58,030
Hawthorn average 49,192

etc, etc

Come back crowing when the NRL gets crowds like this

There is an Other Sports forum to discuss other sport. Such as Australian Rules football.
